Energy values were steadily rising.
Yang Tao looked at the gradually blurring and disappearing corridor in the distance, swallowed, and touched his throat.
'This thing needs to be used carefully…'
'Speaking of which, if it were thrown into the universe where the Wandering Earth is located, trying to drain the solar system at this speed would probably take a terrifying amount of time.'
However, with the Overworld requiring energy values in multiples, Yang Tao wasn't worried about having too much energy to spend.
As long as it's infinitely upgradeable, there will definitely be a situation in the future where draining an entire universe won't even be enough to upgrade one level.
Summoning a wooden door, Yang Tao directly left Level!, returning to the Overworld.
He glanced at his energy value; it was still increasing at a rate of 800/s.
If calculated by the walls of Level 0, in Level! 'Run if you don't want to die!' level, 800 cubic meters of wall material were disappearing every second.
He sat back in his office chair.
Looking at the busy Villagers in the Overworld, Yang Tao murmured with emotion, "Is invincibility truly this lonely?"
He slammed the table beside him and stood up: "If not now, when will I get my revenge!"
He hadn't forgotten the moment he was swallowed by the Level 7 Thing.
Today, he was going to taste the Level 7 Thing and see what it was like.
The young man who once escaped with an ender pearl had returned, and this time he swore to make his enemies know what pain was.
Just a mere 500,000 health.
Emitting a low pressure all over his body, Yang Tao walked into Level 7 'Thalassophobia'.
An endless, vast ocean, with warm sunlight spilling from the sky, and scattered floating islands resting on the surface.
A sea breeze, carrying its unique fishy smell, blew towards him.
Yang Tao looked at the deep ocean and jumped in without hesitation.
Soon, a figure swam towards him in the ocean at an incredible speed.
In just a few breaths, the creature, which initially appeared as only a black dot, was already in front of him.
Two glowing eyes looked at him.
"You've returned..."
The newcomer was 'Tiny' from Level 7 'Thalassophobia'.
He and the Level 7 Thing were the only two Entities in this level.
Although they had only met once, and Yang Tao hadn't been back for a long time, Tiny still remembered this strange human.
After all, he was the only human to ever hand over a business card.
Looking at Tiny, whose face was covered by a hard shell, Yang Tao smiled and said, "I'm back to have a heart-to-heart talk with that guy below."
Tiny looked at the man in front of him, and for some reason, he felt a genuine sense of confidence emanating from him.
It was as if the Level 7 Thing was merely something within his grasp.
"It's very strong."
"Yes, I know.
Normally, I settle grudges on the spot.
The fact that I've left this guy until now means its strength goes without saying."
500,000 health plus its absurdly fast regeneration speed, even if it stayed still in the ocean, Yang Tao would have a hard time killing it... err, if it really stayed still, killing it would be too easy.
If it dared to show its head, the Dragon Slayer would instantly kill it with an arrow.
Yang Tao didn't pay much attention to Tiny.
After all, there wasn't much interaction between them; they had barely exchanged a few words.
However, being 'kind-hearted', he still advised it before leaving: "This level might disappear.
If you can leave, it's best to leave here..."
With that, Yang Tao plunged into the midnight zone.
He had already seen the Level 7 Thing, over ten thousand meters long, swimming in the midnight zone below.
'How leisurely, but your days are numbered!'
There seemed to be an invisible membrane between the Twilight zone and the midnight zone.
The light and pressure in the two areas were completely different, but for the current Yang Tao, there was no distinction between them.
The moment he stepped into the midnight zone.
The Level 7 Thing seemed to sense him; its relaxed demeanor vanished, and it turned its massive body, staring intently at Yang Tao who had entered its territory.
Forcefully swinging its tail, the Level 7 Thing charged at Yang Tao like a runaway dog.
'So eager to die, I underestimated you...'
A 'beast' with no intelligence, only instinct, even with 500,000 health, was nothing but a joke.
However, for Wanderers without unconventional weapons, this was a natural disaster.
Buzz...
He took out the Red Matter Katar from his backpack, and as it charged, the blade of the Fist Sword grew brighter and brighter.
The Level 7 Thing had already reached him, its enormous mouth, like an ordinary abyss, was open, revealing its jagged teeth.
Its teeth were really quite good.
-1000
-1000
...
In the blink of an eye, dense numbers popped up above the Level 7 Thing's head, and its 500,000 health bar drained like water from an open floodgate.
Even with its abnormal regeneration speed, it couldn't offset the damage from the Red Matter Katar.
The Level 7 Thing, having been attacked, paused slightly.
Although it didn't have high intelligence, it could sense the rapid loss of its life force.
The aura of death enveloped it.
Escape!
This thought emerged in its mind, but how could Yang Tao give it that chance?
With a flash, he directly darted into the Level 7 Thing's mouth.
"Didn't you want to eat me? Today, I'll let you have a taste!"
The enormous mouth was even more spacious than his Gym hall; opening a grand feast inside wouldn't be a problem.
Buzz, buzz...
A peculiar buzzing sound rang out; this was the sound produced by the Red Matter Katar when performing an area attack.
Inside the Level 7 Thing's mouth, Yang Tao could feel it rapidly diving.
In his eyes, this was nothing more than its death throes.
Boom!
As the Level 7 Thing's health disappeared, a violent tremor occurred.
Yang Tao flew out of the Level 7 Thing's massive mouth, looking at the astonishing sight around him.
The seabed of Level 7 was piled with various skeletons, a vast expanse of white like a white Nether.
But this wasn't what surprised Yang Tao.
What surprised Yang Tao was that the seabed wasn't made of sand or mud, but a layer of carpet, similar to the carpet laid in the corridors of Level 5 Terror Hotel.
It was unknown what material this carpet was made of; even after being soaked in seawater, it showed no signs of decay.
"How chaotic... laying carpet on the seabed, isn't that like tiling the land?"
Shaking his head, the Backrooms had more than just this one chaotic level.
Looking at the Level 7 Thing's extremely long body, Yang Tao used a huge cleaver to cut a piece of meat from it.
The crimson blood dyed all the surrounding seawater red.
He put the meat into his backpack.
"This should be enough to eat..."
Even a single strip of meat weighed several tons.
He surveyed the surrounding bone forest.
Yang Tao took out the Building Staff and gently tapped the ground.
Fifty Energy Collector MK3s, emitting Glowstone light, appeared in the extremely dark seabed.
+2000 Energy Value/s
The seawater, the skeletons, and even the body of the Level 7 Thing were gradually disappearing.
The loser has no choice.
